Thanks everyone for your replies. Okay, so this is interesting. When I try deploying the app to the domain root, I can't see the "Welcome aboard!" page; instead, I see the index.html page that's in Apache's web root directory. Also, when I try http://<server_addr>/users, I see a directory listing of the (.erb) files that are in the demo_app/app/views/users. Does this mean that Passenger is not set up correctly?
I don't know if it matters, but the server I'm using doesn't have a domain name; I'm accessing it using its IP address.
